Full description
The application will support the provision of a free craft taster session for 40 women at the Leith Festival in June and a stall at the festival?s Gala day. Funding will support the cost of a stall at the Festival (£58), materials for the craft session (£262) and general publicity material for the group (£44). The session will provide a platform for the group to promote its activities and engage the interest of women in the area.

It is a high profile event attended by families. It offers a low cost opportunity to reach a high number of women.
